I got PIAA wiper blades about 2 months ago. About $10 more than the Bosch Micro blades but they are great wipers. They wipe streak free and much better than the Bosch's brand new.

I got mine through a local shop. But you can order them from Option Auto Salon or TIre Rack.

How long do the PIAA's last? Last I heard, they don't really last as long as standard ones... also you need to wipe down the windshield with some sort of "rain-x" type solution for them?

you dont have to, but i had the wipers before and after rainX, before it was good, but with the rainx, it was better. mines held up for the pass six months and its still soft. very good wipers for the money. :thumbup:
